Sizing Issue in CS4

Hi All,
I am having an issue resizing items or creating new shapes. I can type in the desired size (2.125 x 3.125) in my rectangle tool and the size created is off (say 2.109 x 3.056). Then when i try to re-size using the transform palette the sizes will change from what I put in. Generally, I have to change the size 2-3 times before it takes. I've checked to make sure the "constrain" chain is not locking the two dimensions. I've checked preferences. It has to be something silly, one machine does it and one machine does not though I cannot find a difference in preferences. Can anyone help??? Many Thanks

Jim,
You may have corrupted preferences.
You may use the hint Move the folder here: http://www.bugge.com/Family-and-friends/Illy/illy.html for further explanations and instructions.
As far as I remember you may also hold down Ctrl/Cmd+Alt/Option+Shift during startup of Illy to delete preferences.
Deleting the preferences is irreversible; moving the folder is more thorough, and reversible.

How do I avoid sizing issues with a Bevel?

I am designing a logo for a startup business, and a beveled filter really looks nice for this particular company. The client really likes what I came up with. The problem is the filter seems to cause sizing issues. Enlarging it is creating ugly pixelation. Is there a method for avoiding this, or can I simply not use a bevel?
Thanks.

In the preferences check scale strokes and effects

Issues With CS4 Installation on Win 8?

I purchased CS4 (Web Premium) on disc several years ago, and it has been working fine on my Win XP computer ever since. The Adobe software has all the current updates, though I am using the CS4 version of Acrobat Pro (9.xx) rather than a more recent (free) version of Reader.,
Unfortunately, my computer's hard drive has fried, and I just purchased a new Windows 8 machine, which will arrive shortly. I am trying to determine:
1. Are there any general issues with CS4 installation on Win 8 that I should know about in advance?
2. Are there specific procedures (de-activation?) that I need to follow BEFORE attempting the installation on the new computer?
3. Other than specific user issues, are there problems with CS4 versus Windows 8 that I would not encounter with Windows 7.
I enhance photos and create web sites for a living, so the CS4 installation is mission-critical. I am hoping I did not make a mistake in ordering a Win 8 machine...
Thanks for any and all insights.

OK, fair enough. Maybe someone who has actually experienced this situation (CS4 --> Win 8 machine) might see this and offer some tips to avoid hassles. But I will try the install as soon as I get the new machine and post any ensuing issues/problems here.
As for de-activation of the previous installation on the XP machine, that is now impossible, as the hard-drive is fried. Unless there is a way to de-activate an installation some other way (without actually opening the programs). That said, I AM able to access files on the fried harddrive, so if there is a specific file that controls de-activation, I could access it on the old machine. However, I may not be able to actually RUN said file on that machine, but can copy it to a stick and move it elsewhere. So, any thoughts on deactivation of an installation on a deceased computer?

Multi-monitor issue with CS4?

Hi; I'm running a Mac with the following specs:
3 x 30" ACD
MacPro 2,8 Ghz Quad
2x ATI Radon 2600 XT graphics cards (2 screens attached to 1 card; 1 screen to the other card)
I've encountered after the switch from CS3 to CS4 the following issue:
Whenever I try to use the new Bridge Review function using one of the the screens sharing one graphics card I just get a grey screen.
If I move the bridge window to the solely attached screen it works.
Is that an issue of CS4 or is just the throughput of the second graCard providing 2 monitors not sufficient.
Thanks t.

T,
There are known issues with using more than one graphics card which Apple has not truly resolved. You may want to browse some of the threads in the Adobe Photoshop Macintosh forum.
In addition, you should know that Photoshop and Bridge cannot really take advantage of more than one graphic card.

This bit of information in relation to GPU and OpenGL features and
limitations in Photoshop CS4 had totally escaped me until now. Though
it doesn't affect my setup, it might be of interest to others who may
have missed it too.
Excerpt from
http://www.adobe.com/go/kb404898
Q. Does Photoshop take advantage of dual-GPU display cards?
A. Not at this time.
Q. Why can't Photoshop take advantage of more than one display card?
A. When you move an image window between two monitors that are
each on a separate display card, the GPU attached to the second monitor
does not have access to the data necessary to accelerate drawing. The
SLI and Crossfire technologies that use more than one GPU to speed up
full-screen games will not work with Photoshop, because their use is
limited by design to accelerate only full-screen games.

Using Adobe PhotoShop CS4, I cannot add text to a new layer. It was always a snap with previous versions of OS 10. Has anyone else noticed issues with CS4 and Lion? Many thanks in advance. Pete Hendricks

Sizing Issue

I'm doing a project for school and having some sizing issues
with my pages. earlier in the project my partner and I had some
major issues with style sheets and banner headings, but now
whenever we preview a page it changes size. We have about 10 pages
and when you change from page to page the main text area either
becomes really big, shrinking the other text areas, or becomes
extremely small letting the other text areas take over. Can anyone
tell me what we are doing wrong and how to dix this problem?

Can you post a link to these pages, please?

Same issues in CS4 as CS5

So I have upgraded to CS5 hoping that the numerous issues I faced with CS4 would cease and go away. For a person in a position where Photoshop is the bulk of your daily use you might think that Adobe might have found the solutions for these irritating small issues that are easily found in repetition and can be repeated once you have them down.
Here are my issues with CS4 and now with CS5:
1. Every time Photoshop crashes my workspace resets as well as all of my brushes causing me to have to reset these on every crash.
2. Palettes still don't hold there place with persistence set. (mainly Illustrator issues)
3. Open documents as Tabs still resets every time you quit and then restart Photoshop (happens also in Illustrator)
This might seems small to others, but I use Photoshop for a least 10 hours or more a day and these small irritating issues add up to a lot of time when you are working in a fast paced production environment as I am.
Can someone at Adobe please look in to these issues????
I have been experiencing these issues since CS3.
You would think that programmers of such dynamic software platforms such as Adobe would catch this, but after it running my impression of CS4 and leaving a bitter taste in my mouth I thought a post might help.
PS
I am not a regular to these forums. I prefer to contact Adobe directly to discuss issues. I am just at wits end with these persistent issues.
Any help is appreciated.

Find out what is common to all your nine systems. Do you all procure your RAM from the same source? Is the same IT team responsible for all your systems as well as the network? Do they just clone your systems rather than installing everything from scratch?
I agree with all the previous posters that this is something unique to your system.
Not once have I ever experienced any of those symptoms in CS3 and CS4, and I have been using them since the day each one of those versions was released—actually since the beta days. I do not use CS5, but you say you've been seeing this since CS3.
Chris Cox is not just any Adobe employee; he is a top Adobe Photoshop engineer and has been writing Photoshop code for some fifteen years. We are extremely fortunate that he contributes to this forum as a volunteer on his own time and dime. He has no obligation to do so whatsoever and no reason to be anything other than forthright with you or anybody else.

Log Message:
The changes here are mostly fixing some sizing issues.
For the FlashContainerPlaceholder, the first child is now MyFlexContentHolder, which extends mx.flash.FlexContentHolder but meets the invariant that it has 1 child and that child is FlexContentHolderThumbnail, which I?\226?\128?\153ve added as a swc to the project. I changed this by accident last time to refer to mx.flash.FlexContentHolder, when it should've referred to a concrete instance created by Flash from a swc. I also added a chrome of 151x151 to match the FlexContentHolderThumbnail since otherwise the container itself would have no chrome at all, and this let?\226?\128?\153s it size correctly.
Also, for sizing, in a container, rather than sizing to the size of the chrome, I now size to the size of the FlexContentHolder thumbnail that all FlexContentHolder?\226?\128?\153s have. This means in ContainerMovieClip, I don?\226?\128?\153t need to override bounds anymore.
ContainerMovieClip now implements IVisualElementContainer.
Also, I fixed a resizing event bug in UIMovieClip where the resize event was getting dispatched more than once.

Croping and sizing issues

I have been using lightroom 4 for about 5 months. But I am having issues with croping and sizing of pictures. When I use the crop tool it does not always draw the picture in closer. I do shoot in RAW and not in JPEG. I was wodering if there is a setting that I am not using or its not avaiable. Also when I export out of lightroom4 and convert them from RAW to JPEG I have sizing issues depending on what size the customer orders. I have tried to export them out at certain sizes but its still not correct. The only way I have found to do it is going into photoshop and sizing them correctly but its very time consumeing . Any help would be great!!

You didn't tell us the desired output. All you said "...but its still not correct". What output are you trying to obtain?
Also, what do you mean "When I use the crop tool it does not always draw the picture in closer"? Normally, you drag a corner (or corners) of the crop rectangle to crop tighter. Are you doing this? Is it not working? Explain.

Sizing Issues with Illustrator CS4

When I drag the ellipse/rectangle tool in Illustrator CS4 on Windows XP, instead of just resizing the object when I drag, it creates multiple ellipses/rectangles until I have reached the size I want. How do I get this to stop so that there is only 1 object?

Installation/uninstall issues between CS4 and CS5

I had CS4 installed. I purchased CS5 (downloaded it) installed that. When I got the disks via mail, I tried to install that version (disk version). I started having issues as to which program would open a .prproj file. Often the CS4 version of Premiere Pro opened. Not what I wanted. I eventually uninstalled CS5 entirely and then reinstalled. Then things were working fine. However, I then tried to uninstall CS4. (I have seen from numerous posts/comments to leave both on -- which I really don't know why. Doesn't make sense to keep both versions). I prefer not to have an extra 4GB of space used for programs I am no longer using. However, in doing so, the uninstall didn't appear to do a perfect job. And now I can't double-click a .prproj file. This icon is also blank white. I went into Set Associations and I can't assign .prproj to Premiere CS5. In looking at the Open With window, I notice that some of the icons for other Adobe programs are all splewy (Adobe Encore is using the CS4 icon, Adobe Illustrator is using the PDF icon, Flash Catalyst is using the Air icon, etc.)
I could: a) uninstall everything, including Adobe Acrobat Pro (which I had purchased and installed prior to CS4 or CS5) and then reinstall everything -- sheesh that would take a while; or b) I could ask my friends here to explain and guide me!

Hi Stix, Thanks.
I am not so positive that there is no difference between the download version vs the media version specifcially because in downloading the updates, the site demands you choose your update depending on how your software was installed. I figured that the download would be smaller. Perhaps you are right. And maybe it is the same, in either case, when I get a stack of disks, I tend to think there is more on the disk and the download version is merely the core applications.
Anyway, I had to uninstall everything CS4 and CS5 and then reinstall CS5. Oddly, this didn't automatically fix my problem. However, at least I was able to choose Premiere CS5 to open .prproj files and check off the box to use it as the default. (I wasn't able to before). So now it works!

Design View Issue Dreamweaver CS4 - Taking forever to load design view

I am having an issue where my site takes literally almost a full day to load in design view. Once it is loaded everything works seemlessly but once I close down Dreamweaver and reopen it, I have to wait another day to get to design view of my site. All files open just fine in code view.
I have deleted the Dreamweaver CS4 cache folder, completely formatted my drive and reinstalled creative suite. I have also validated my code on W3c and everything checks out fine.
The majority of my site is based off of a template, but even when I remove all the template references in the html files from Notepad I am still having the same issue. My site renders fine and quickly however on Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari.
When loading any other site off the web into Dreamweaver I do not run into the problem so there must be something wrong with how my site is set up. Either the Template file is no good or somewhere else I am falling short. Can someone, please, please, please ( I am begging) help me figure out what is going on here.
My index file is located at - http://www.thebluedot.net/index.html and the template file is located at - http://www.thebluedot.net/Templates/index.dwt
I have searched high and low and even made a post on this same topic about a month ago but never came up with a resolution to my issue. I had given up on finding a solution to this problem for some time, but I really need to figure out where I am going wrong here!
Additional Details -
I am running - Windows Vista Ultimate on a Core 2 Processor with 12 GB of Ram & Solid State Hard Drive. Everything on my system runs super smoothly except loading my site in Dreamweaver CS4 design view.
I really appreciate any help you can provide.

I have used CS2 Adobe GoLive to create and manage a website (pro-prosperity.com). Now, I have CS4 Dreamweaver. I got a new site set up on Dreamweaver using the site management facility. I then have the contents of website available locally on Dreamweaver. I can edit files. But the main home page, index.html, is not displaying on design view mode for editing, although it displays everything on live view mode. I have struggled for days and am not getting any difference in attributes of index.html and another .html that is displaying fine on design view and is editable.
I am really lost and am begging for any help. Can you, for example, copy the home page from pro-prosperity.com and display on design view and edit it? Please tell me what is in this file that is troublesome. Thanks.
The first thing you should do is to make sure that this feature is turned on (it's off by default):
View > Code View Options > Highlight Invalid Html
It's not perfect, but it will notify you of some problems. In Code View, there are many problems highlighted. Some of them don't make sense, but are triggered because of a problem with a parent tag.
Be sure to make a backup copy of your file before doing the next step. Close your page. Go to Preferences > Code Rewriting, and turn on "Fix invalidly nested and unclosed tags", "Remove extra closing tags", and "Warn when fixing or removing tags". Click OK, then re-open your page. The messages in the dialog to tell you what was changed. This allowed me to see your page in Design View (I am using CS5).
Note: I suggested that you reset your preferences to turn off those 3 settings as they can cause problems with some markup.
In the long term, I suggest that you avoid nesting tables wherever possible.
Hope this helps,
Randy

WebView sizing issue

Hi,
I'm embedding a WebView through a JFXPanel in a existing Swing app and running into some issues regarding to sizing.
My issue is that sometimes the height/width reported in JavaScript inside the WebView is 800*600, while most of the time it is reported to be equal to the dimensions of the WebView/Scene/JFXPanel. As the content I'm showing is a chart that renders itself to a size according to the dimensions of a parent DOM node, which is in this case the document.body, you can imagine that the results are wrong when the values reported in JavaScript for width and height are wrong.
Ideally what I want is that the size of the body of the HTML document automatically follows the dimensions of the JFXPanel, meaning that is the JFXPanel gets resized, the dimensions of the scene/WebView follow suit. As this is not possible AFAIK, I've now setup a ComponentListener on the JFXPanel to update the dimensions of the WebView through the componentResized method of the ComponentListener. However, this still gives me the mixed results.
I've setup a log of logging and I see that when the JavaScript layer reports the 800*600 dimensions, the dimensions of the WebView, Scene and JFXPanel are NOT reported as 800*600, but all report the actual size.
My setup is as follows:
- JFXPanel containing a Scene containing a WebView.
- The scene is constructed without specifying a width/height
- The JFXPanel is dimensioned by a special Swing layout manager
- The WebView is loaded with custom HTML through loadContent() of the WebEngine
- The body of the HTML document is sized 100%*100% through CSS
- Dimensions in JavaScript are retrieved through document.body.getWidth/Height
- In the custom HTML a chart is instantiated with the dimensions of the
- Using Java 1.7 update 25 64bit on Windows with the bundled JavaFX
Any thoughts appreciated.
P.

Please a correction i have seen that this error is produced on every scheduled report. The problem i am facing is that the campaign consolidated daily report is not imported in the specified folder.

Table alignment issues InDesign CS4

Hi,
Can anybody help me on the following issues in InDesign CS4.
We have an table which has 50 rows and 23 columns. All the cell contents is in the number format (example: 56.90) and are aligned on decimal point (dot alignment).
Also, the table content has XML tags.
When we export the table as PDF, we have the issues that the table column texts are not aligned (dot aligned) properly in the exported PDF file.
We used the default "High Quality Print" InDesign PDF preset settings but without "Create Tagged PDF" option enabled to export the PDF. In this PDF, the columns texts are not aligned (dot align) properly. It look likes zig zag. (Please see the below image which is not aligned properly)
But when we enabled the "Create Tagged PDF" option in the preset, then there is no issues in the column text alignment.
Is this bug in InDesign CS4 application. Please suggest.
Thanks,
Gopal

It's hard for me to see a problem. I don't see a problem in the illustration you provided. It looks aligned to me.
Also, it sounds like you found a workaround for your problem (turning on Create Tagged Text).
But, even if there were a bug in CS4, you'd have to find a workaround anyway since there won't be any bug fixes for CS4.
